Blurb
Secrets, they always come back to bite...everybody
Freya Lapierre thought she’d lost everything the day her husband died. Then she discovered the mess he left behind. Now she knows he wasn’t the man he pretended to be throughout their marriage, and his friends—her new enemies—are coming for her. Pair that with an ailing father and a move to a brand new city, Freya’s got no time—or patience—for love. So when Jake Leeman shows up, smart, sexy, fun and persistent, she shouldn’t take the bait.
But oh, does she want to. Because Jake’s making her feel things she never thought possible again. And she still craves the happily-ever-after she thought she lost forever.
Jake Leeman wants a change. He’s finished college and ready to move to a new city to start fresh. Confident, determined, even ruthless, Jake’s not afraid to take on anything—except flying—so of course he meets the woman of his dreams on a plane. Freya’s cool beauty intrigues him, as does the sense that she’s hiding a dangerous secret. She doesn’t think he can help her—but he can.

Excerpt
By the time we got home, I was exhausted, which hardly made any sense given how little I’d actually done. But I was, and after a delicious barbecue dinner downstairs with Emma, James and the twins, we retired to bed early. The sun had sucked the life right out of us until we were nothing but limp noodles half a shade darker than when we’d started.
“You got a bit of a burn on your shoulders,” Jake murmured as we lay on the bed, not touching because of how hot it was. “Do you want me to put some aloe on it?”
Not bothering to open my eyes, I grunted a yes and then I felt him leave the bed, only to return a few seconds later and straddle my upturned butt. “Get off me. It’s too hot to be skin-to-skin,” I moaned, already feeling the sweat getting trapped between us.
“Quit moaning, you big baby. Let the doctor work.” His hands were sorcery, even with just the aloe. He massaged and rubbed, thumbs kneading into knots I didn’t even know my shoulders had until I was a puddle of human butter, supple and pliant. I must have dozed off or something, because Jake’s voice startled me. “Are you close?”
“Close to what?” I murmured.
“Coming.”
My eyes popped open, and I craned my neck around to give him an eyeball. “No, why would I be close to coming?”
“The way you were moaning … kind of thought you might have been having a bit of feminine hysteria.” His smile was all playful, and his hands grew more and more brazen as they curved around from my back, cradling my ribcage and cupping my breasts.
“Feminine hysteria?” He helped me roll over until I was on my back and he was straddling my front.
He nodded. “And now, I see that you burned your chest a bit as well.” He clucked his tongue while shaking his head. “Silly, silly. Best to take your swimsuit off and let me apply more aloe.”
Rolling my eyes, I obliged. “You’re incorrigible.”
“Shh, crazy lady. Let the doctor do what he needs to do.”
He continued with his tireless ministrations until an all-too-noticeable bulge appeared in his shorts. His hands, which had started on the burn on my chest, had somehow made their way down my stomach and were probing beneath my bottoms. “Again, you fiend?” I moaned. “I don’t know if I can.”
He pulled them down my legs until I was naked on the bed. The fan in the corner hit my aloe-cooled skin, causing a sudden chill to sweep over me. “One more time, and then I’ll let you sleep. You don’t even have to do anything, you can just lie there and enjoy.” Then he ducked his head between my legs and all was right with the world … at least for that moment.

About the Author
A Canadian West Coast baby born and raised, Whitley is married to her high school sweetheart, and together they have two beautiful daughters and a fluffy dog. She spends her days making food that gets thrown on the floor, vacuuming Cheerios out from under the couch and making sure that the dog food doesn't end up in the air conditioner. But when nap time comes, and it's not quite wine o'clock, Whitley sits down, avoids the pile of laundry on the couch, and writes.
A lover of all things decadent; wine, cheese, chocolate and spicy erotic romance, Whitley brings the humorous side of sex, the ridiculous side of relationships and the suspense of everyday life into her stories. With mommy wars, body issues, threesomes, bondage and role playing, these books have everything we need to satisfy the curious kink in all of us.
